October 24, 2025 - As a long-time partner in the fight against hunger, H-E-B has committed $5 million to support food banks across Texas and a $1 million gift to benefit Meals on Wheels programs across the state. The gifts come at a time when a growing number of Texas families are facing hunger throughout our communities. Together with the volunteer support of H-E-B Partners, these gifts further the retailer’s mission to help Texans.
“On behalf of Meals On Wheels Texas and the many individuals we serve, I want to extend our deepest gratitude to H-E-B for their generous support. Your commitment to caring for our communities ensures that this vital service can continue reaching our most vulnerable neighbors – especially in these challenging times,” said Olivia Burdick, Board President, Meals on Wheels Texas & CEO, The Center in Boerne. “H-E-B’s generosity not only provides nourishing meals but also delivers hope, connection, and compassion to those who need it most. We are profoundly grateful for your partnership and for the meaningful difference you make every day in the lives of aging Texans.”
For Meals on Wheels Texas, the $1 million gift will support their efforts to provide nutrition services to homebound seniors. In Texas, 13.6 percent of seniors are at risk of hunger, according to Feeding Texas. Every day, the organization delivers more than 100,000 meals, helping Texas seniors live independently without worrying where their next meal will come from.
